DEATH IN THE WATER.
Is the Element We Drink Ueclmating
q the People! +
dow a Universal Menace to Health may
be Disarmed.

a few years ego the people il a certain
section in one OF the leading cities of the
state were Frustrated with malignant
disease, and upon investigation it Ew6s
found that only those who used water
from & famous old well were the victims.
Prof, S. A. Lattimore, analyst of the
New YORK. State Board of Health, upon
anelyzing water from this well, found it
more deadly than The city sewage.
The filling of the old well stopped the
ravaees of the disease.
Not long since the writer noticed while
some men we're making aD excavation for
q large building, stratum Of darE
cologed earth running from near the sur
face 20 hare pan. There it took another
course toward q well near at hand. The
water from this well mad for years been
tainted with the DRAWINGS from recciy-
ing vault, the peTColations Of which had
disCOlCEed the earth!
Terrible,
i similar condition of things exists in
every viilage and city where well water
is used, and though the tiltering which
the fluids receive IN passing through the
earth may give them clear appearance,
yet tile 5pOIson and disease remains,
though the water may lock never so
clear.
It's still worse with the farmer, for
the drainage from the barn yard and the
Stops from the kitchen eventually find
their way into the family well!
The same condition OF things exist IN
our large cities, whose water supplies
are rivers fed oy little streams that carry
This "Water" is eventually drunk by rich
and poor alike with great evil.
Some cautious people resort to the
litter for purifying this water, but even
the filter does not remove this poison,
for water OF the most deadly character
may pass through this filter and become
clear, yet the poison disguised is there
They who use filters know that they
must be renewed at regular periods, for
even though they do not take out all the
impurity, hey soon become foul.
Now in like manner the human kidneys
act as g filter for the blood, and # they
are filled up with Impurities and become
foul, like The filter, all the blood in the
system coursirg through them becomes
bad, for it IS now conceded fact tnat
the kidneys ere the CHEF means whereby
the blood j. purified; These organs are
filed with thousands Of haIT-like tubes
which drsja Inc impurities from The
blood, as the sewer pipes drain impUIi-
Ties from Uur houses.

drainage produce so many fatal disorders.
